Summary

Description
English: Parlor of Hānaiakamālama — the Summer Palace of Queen Emma in Hawaii.
  • The piano made by Emil Ascherberg from Dresden, Germany between 1865-1870, was aquired during her travels to Europe after the death of her son and husband. The piano was bought to Hawai'i on a sailing vessel around Cape Horn.
  • The koa dining table and chairs are defined as “early mission” – very simple and solid and is one of the only pieces remaining from John Young II, a missionary who built the house and left it to Queen Emma.
  • On the table is an imari porcelain jardinière given by Emperor Meiji to King Kalākaua.
  • The koa cabinet displays three 3 feather capes which were worn across the shoulders of royal women and lesser chiefs.
(No photography allowed inside the house.)
